Jody Morris

Morris joined City in June from 2012, reuniting him with McInnes after their time together at St Johnstone.

Morris failed to impress, however, only making four appearances and was released by the club in January 2013.

He has returned to Chelsea and has been managing their academy teams since 2014.

Greg Cunningham

Cunningham signed for City in the summer of 2012, with the left-back becoming a regular starter in his three years at the club.

He is the first of McInnes signings who was a regular contributor to the team.

He left City in 2015 and has since cemented the left-back role at Championship rivals Preston North End.

Paul Anderson

Anderson signed from rivals Nottingham Forest in the summer of 2012 and was a regular in the team throughout that season.

The winger failed to significantly impress and at the end of the season moved to Ipswich Town

He now plays for League Two Mansfield Town.

Mark Wilson

Wilson was another Scottish player brought in under McInnes, who struggled to make any impact for City. Joining as a trialist, he was signed by the club but only made eight appearances in his only season in Bristol.

He was released at the end of the season, returning to Scotland before retiring in 2015. He has since moved into coaching, but is currently without a club.

Tom Heaton

One of the few McInnes' successful deals was keeper Tom Heaton.

He signed for free after being out of contract with Cardiff City.

He went to be one of the more impressive City players in the 2012-13 season but rejected the chance to stay and joined Burnley.

Since then he has become a Premier League regular for the Clarets and has flirted with the England national side.

Steve Davies

Striker Davies joined City for £750 000 from Derby County and went on to score 13 times in 37 appearances during the 2012-13 season.

At seasons end, he joined Blackpool and currently plies his trade for League One club Rochdale.

Sam Baldock

Arguably McInnes best City signing, Baldock immediately made an impact at Ashton Gate.

In two impressive seasons he scored 34 goals.

At the end of his second season, he signed for Championship club Brighton & Hove Albion for a reported £2million.

He has been a regular for the Seagulls but has struggled for minutes after their promotion to the Premier League.
